As the Buddha supposedly said, “There are many ways to truth.” And so it shall be within the Atheist community as well. The approach which one Atheist takes may work well for some people, thus leading them to a better understanding of reality. That same approach may not work well for others, however. This is why there should be multiple views and multiple understandings expressed. As long as a member of the Atheist community isn’t expressing the concept of dogma and as long as they can backup their statements with some evidence and reason, then their view is up for discussion. At the beginning of the Atheist Era is no time to start with anything resembling dogma.
